Graticolato Romano e percorso ciclabile

Two cycle paths of varying width along the Roman Graticolato.

Cycling Venice Lagoon, an organization promoting cycle tourism in the Venice Lagoon and the surrounding area, has identified two different routes, respectively 26.830 km and 12.163 km, to admire various cultural sites and revisit pieces of the ancient Roman Graticolato.

Cycling Venice Lagoon also provides excursion packages, bikes, helmets, and technical assistance for a slow, cultural, and eco-sustainable enjoyment of the Venice Lagoon and its canals.

The Graticolato Romano stretched between the present provinces of Padua and Venice, which is still characterized by the remarkable regularity with which the streets are arranged. It represented the cis centuriazione Musonem, that is "on this side of the river Muson" that marked the border with the municipality of Altinum. Although for many similar systems the geometric center of the agricultural subdivision (umbilicus agrii) coincided with the geometric center of town planning (umbilicus urbi), in this case the hinge and the maximum decumanus crossed north of Padua.
